Default CPU Idle and under load temps?

AthlonXP 3000+ barton
1G PC3000 (2x512)

What's a normal idle and under load temperature for this processor? And is
there a way to measure it on the fly via software? I know you can get
temperature in BIOS but can you get it software on the fly?

Thanks.

Depends on your heatsink/fan combo and the airflow inside your case(mostly).
Good temps with Air cooling are in the mid 50c rage under load and mid to low
40c idle. When you get much higher than 60C then you ight think about better
cooling. Typically the temp readings you see are not accurate core temps,but
approximate temps taken under the CPU.
